Intestinal polyps can eat normally a few days after surgery

Removal of intestinal polyps will cause certain damage to intestinal mucosa. After intestinal polyps surgery, it is generally necessary to fast for one day to prevent food residues from stimulating wounds, which is not conducive to wound recovery and exacerbating the disease. During fasting, patients need to follow the doctor's instructions, do not eat casually. After 24 hours, normal diet can be carried out. However, it is recommended that patients choose semi-liquid foods such as porridge and soup noodles to facilitate gastrointestinal digestion and absorption and reduce gastrointestinal burden. If the patient has large intestinal polyps or some inflammation after surgery, the patient may need to eat longer.
